A I can't believe you wear jeans to the office! Are you trying to lose your job?

真想不到，你竟然穿着牛仔裤来上班了。你不想干了?

B Of course not. I'm just observing casual day. On Fridays, the company doesn't require us to wear formal business attire.

当然不是。我这么穿也是符合有关便服日的规定的：公司不要求员工在星期五穿正规的职业装。

A Wow! Nobody told me about that. Won't the relaxed dress code damage the company image?

哇!没人告诉我这个。难道这种善于便服的着装规定不会损害公司形象吗?

B We don't think so. Casual days are becoming more common, and we believe employees can maintain a professional image without wearing uncomfortable clothes.

不会的。实行便服日的这种规定已经越来越普遍了;我们认为，即使员工穿着舒适随意一些，也能保持专业形象。

A I guess it lets people express their individual tastes. But won't some people abuse it ?

身穿便服可以体现个人品味。难道不会有人滥用这个规定吗?

B Not really. Besides, there is a separate dress code for casual day. People can't just wear whatever they want.

不会吧。穿便服有有单独的规定，员工也不能想穿什么就穿什么。

A It seems that a relaxed atmosphere could hinder productivity.

轻松的气氛会影响工作效率。

B Believe it or not, it has the opposite effect. Employees are actually more productive on casual days.
